not sure what paper but geography(probably examcraft as there is examcraft boxes in the room) there is

a sketch map of brazil and a feature of erosion/deposition and a question on the Paris Basin

Does this have a biome question on characteristics

legocrazy505

Accounting but unsure which paper Examcraft:

60 mark questions include a Revaluation and Club Account. Q5 is where it's a report on if a loan should be granted. Q6 is suspense. Q7 a published question with common notes. Q9 is a cash budget or maybe a mixed one.

French Aural HL. Barcode on left so DEB?
Thought it was actually really reasonable.

Section one was about three students talking about university. The first girl was speaking about medicine, second guy was talking about how he thought college would be like
Don't remember the third student, will update when I do

Section 2 was about a French politician talking about his life in Quebec, Canada. They asked who he was with in Quebec, and how he made the decision of whether to stay in Quebec or to return home to France. They also asked what the speaker decided to change, a bit tricky so just watch out for that. (It's also the first question)

Section 3 was a conversation with two people and they were talking about a concert. You have to give two reasons why Marie couldn't make it to the concert (très cher) and something about it being in the middle of the week. Pierre also mentions what time he had to be home after the concert, so watch out for that.

Section 4: This was about languages. The first woman was from Hanoi (Finnish I think? Excuse me if I'm wrong) and you're asked "What does Chantal (could be wrong name, sorry) think people with languages should be able to do?" Or something along those lines. You're also asked why the male speaker's girlfriend found life difficult in France. You're also asked where he works.

5: the usual news items. You're asked what happened to a child and where the parents were at the time. You're also asked why an arrest warrant was made for Justin Bieber.

Best of luck guys! Be grand

What is q1 or elective question like? Cheers you are a star for posting

Question one was easy enough, just a bar chart about food labellings, iron and minerals are included in that question, I'm not sure which elective you're doing but for social studies it was

The family - improvements in education, social welfare and decrease in working hours, poverty and something to do with special needs and organisations that help

(sorry I'm not much help I forget them already!)

OMG you literally are a star I could hug you right now!! What section on food came up? Was it e.g.milk,fish etc? Were the short qs okay? I've really neglected homeec.. only realised over weekend how much work I have to do for it

As far as I remember there was no particular food,

Fats & oils, their nutritional value & contribution to the diet, and the production of margarine.

Short qs weren't nice but they might have been alright if I had studied more good luck!

Is this DEB or Examcraft?

emersyn

Lads would you read the first post. Send (polite) private messages to people if you have further questions.

emersyn

Some of the essay titles for DEB HL English:

- A speech in favour or against the motion that young people's voices in Ireland should be heard louder
- A short story where a character faces a problem out of their control
- A feature article about the importance of love in our lives (or something along those lines)
Can't remember any others. No descriptive essay option which I was unfortunately hoping for. For question B in the first article you had to pretend to be a refugee and write a speech about why you chose to come to Ireland and discuss the positives and negatives of the country.

Okay brill for reduced working hours do have to say impact on family? What the social and consumer Q's in section b about and what other minerals apart from iron is there?

Yep, pretty sure the impact is on it.

The consumer question is to do with research and how it benefits manufacturers/retailers and know about a statutory body that helps consumers. You can choose any other two minerals

Spanish HL: Not sure what company but most likely DEB

Fine, nothing too difficult. First comprehension was about the dangers of energy drinks and caffeine, journalistic text was about childhood obesity and healthy eating, the opinion pieces were: 'Hay demasiado comida en el mundo' or 'el deporte es imprescindible para la salud'. The first smaller comprehension was about graffiti artists and the government opening an area specifically for graffiti, the second one was about the worst traffic jam of the year due to heavy rain in some region of Spain that I don't remember. It asked what the government recommended people to do and I was very tempted to write "Don't make unnecessary journeys or take risks on treacherous roads". The dialogue was about your plans to go camping with your friends near the coast in Spain, and talking about your parents bringing you camping when you were younger. The diary entry was about going away to university and being nervous/excited for it, planning to stay in a university residence, and planning to come home for Christmas. The note was about meeting up with a friend to go on a bus tour around the city.
